I find it funny how atheists think that religion or religious hiveminds won't exist if organized religions disappeared. This goes against that notion. What are dedicated fandoms if not more modern day religions?

Exactly, religions are like ancient fandoms that inspire newer fandoms.

Organized religions are no better or worse than disorganized religions.
Anyone is free to invent a modification of any existing religion or invent some new religion.

I don't think Star Wars fans mistake their pretend universe for reality like religious people do.

Although followers of Jediism acknowledge the influence of Star Wars on their religion, by following the moral and spiritual codes demonstrated by the fictional Jedi, they also insist their path is different from that of the fictional characters and that Jediism does not focus on the myth and fiction found in Star Wars.

I'd totally join a Bajoran Church of the Prophets if it had plenty of moody brunettes with crinkly noses.

They still don't pretend it's real. Please see my original comment here.

Being inspired by the behavior of a fictional character from a story is fandom. Believing those stories are reality is religion.

No, the Bajorans were from Arrakis and made Buck Rogers their emissary when he landed there in the TARDIS.
